When I was at my all time strongest/heaviest back in Dec I weighed 240+lbs and was as strong as an ox. (and a small Ox compared to you ExNihilo!
), but after climbing the stairs in the mall while xmas shopping I felt winded!! I was terrible. Im down about 2-3% BF now ~11lbs lighter since I started cutting, and I feel SO much better. Note quite as strong, which sucks, but a worthwhile tradeoff to not feel like Im going to die when I run to the end of the driveway
Its a tough balance to maintain...its like big&strong and lean&fast are at two opposite ends of the spectrum, and the harder you push for one the more you have to let go of the other. And if you try to maintain both, gains in either take excrutiatingly long to achieve. Unless you dont have to work and can focus on training/diet 24/7!!!

As good as I'm feeling right now, 20lbs of fat loss will probably having me bouncing off walls - 05-03-2005, 10:05 PM

I had good endurance at 165, but at 230 running a couple miles is indeed a workout!! getting a lot better though. Im sure there's a 'perfect' balance for everyone, I'd rather lean toward the mass side myself. But I'll never neglect my cardio again!

When I break 210 I will worry about being fast, with my metabolism if I ran down the driveway, I would burn 3500 of my 4000 cals. lol.
p.s.
yeah I bumped up the cals to 4000 because exnihilo made fun of me. j/k
